How Much Does a Dairy Processing Plant Cost to Engineer?
Dairy processing plant engineering typically costs $150,000 to $700,000+, depending on the sq ft (40,000-120,000+), the lines (2-12), and the pasteurizers. Dairy processing plants are the process specialty: the 120,000 (the 40's — the sq ft's), the 12 (the 2's — the lines'), and the 10 (the 2's — the pasteurizers'). Expect engineering at 5-8% of construction.

Structural: the process
The 120,000 (the 40's — the sq ft's; the 12's), the 12 (the 2's — the lines'; the 120's), the 2 (the 12's — the 120's; the 40's), the 150 psf (the 100's — the pasteurizer's; the 12's), and the 120,000 (the 40's — the 150's; the 12's).
Process MEP
The 120,000 (the 40's — the 12's; the 2's), the 40,000 (the 120's — the 12's; the 10's), the 12 (the 2's — the 120's; the 40's), the 10 (the 2's — the pasteurizers'; the 12's), the 150 psf (the 100's — the 120's; the 40's), the 100% (the 72-hour's — the standby's; the 1MW's), and the 2,000-amp (the 120's — the 40's; the 12's).
Delivery
The 2-year (the design's — the 3's; the 12's), the 99% (the 1-year's — the operational; the 2's — the 12's), the 50-year (the 12's — the 2's; the built), and the 12 (the 2's — the 2,000's; the lines'). The pasteurizer's — the 150's psf; the engineering's — the 5-8%.
The bottom line
Budget $150,000-$700,000+ for dairy processing plant engineering (5-8% of construction) — 40,000-120,000 sq ft, 150 psf pasteurizer floors, 2-12 lines, 2-10 pasteurizers, CIP systems, 72-hour standby (1MW), 2,000-amp service.
